Dr. No - Memorable Quotes

Bond: I promise I won't steal your shells. Honey: I promise you you won't, either. Stay where you are! Bond: I can assure you, my intentions are strictly honourable.

Bond: Those samples Strangways found were radioactive. Professor Dent told me they were worthless iron ore. He's either a bad Professor... Leiter: Or a bad liar.

Bond: Your name Quarrel? Quarrel: Maybe. Bond: I am a friend of Commander Strangways. Quarrel: I like people who are friends of people.

Dr. No: Unfortunately I misjudged you. You are just a stupid policeman whose luck has run out.

Leiter: Hey Quarrel, if you see a dragon, you get in first and breath on him. With all that rum in you, he'll die happy.

Bond: Looks like you're out to get me. Sylvia: It's an idea at that.

Dr. No: SPECTRE. Special Executive for Counterintelligence, Revenge and Extortion. The four great cornerstones of power, headed by the greatest brains in the world. Bond: Correction, criminal brains. Dr. No: The successful criminal brain is always superior. It has to be.

Bond: What gives? Moneypenny: Me, given an ounce of encouragement. You never take me to dinner looking like this, James. You never take me to dinner. Period. Bond: I would, but M would have me court martialed for misuse of government property. Moneypenny: Flattery will get you nowhere. But don't stop trying.

Bond: I have to leave immediately. Sylvia: [Kissing Bond] When did you say you had to leave. Bond: Immediately.. well, almost immediately.

Bond: Who are you working for? Dent: I might as well tell you, as you wont live long enough to use that information... [He tries to shoot Bond but his gun is empty] Bond: That's a Smith and Western and you've had your six...

Miss Taro: What should I say to a suggestion from a strange gentleman. Bond: You should say yes. Miss Taro: I should say maybe.

M: Yes, I thought so, this damn Beretta. I've told you about this before. You tell him... Armourer: Nice and light, in a ladies handbag. No stopping power.

Dr. No: A unique feat of engineering, if I may say so. I designed it myself. The glass is convex, ten inches thick, which accounts for the magnifying effect. Bond: Minnows pretending they're whales. Just like you on this island, Dr No.

Honey: [Describing the "dragon"] He had two glaring eyes, a short tail and pointed wings.

Bond: World domination. That same old dream. Our asylums are full of people who think they're Napoleon... or God.
